Thus, the joint portion 75 is designed to allow thelower thigh portion 50B to be swingable with respect to the upper thighportion 50A about the axial body 91 or 92. The joint portion 75configured in this manner also serves as the length adjustment portion86, and as illustrated in FIG. 4 (c), sliding of the axial body 92 alongthe long hole 75H enables adjustment of the space between the upperthigh portion 50A and the lower thigh portion 50B, that is, the lengthof the leg portion 50 in arrow directions in the Figure according to thelength of the long hole 75H of the long hole plate 75A.

Also, the foot portion 50C is mounted on the lower end of the lowerthigh portion 50B so as to be rotatable about an axial body 93 thatextends to the right and left of the doll body 1.

FIGS. 6 (a), (b) are a view of the left side arm portion 30 and theright side arm portion 40 mounted on shoulder portions 70 of the trunkportion 10. FIG. 6 (a) is a top view of the trunk portion 10 (the headportion 20 is not illustrated), and FIG. 6 (b) is a front view of thetrunk portion 10 (the head portion 20 is not illustrated).

In FIGS. 6 (a), (b), both the left side arm portion 30 and the rightside arm portion 40 have the same configuration. Here, for instance, theright side arm portion 40 will be described.

First, a shoulder portion 70 is mounted on an upper portion of the trunkportion 10, the shoulder portion 70 having a curved portion that isdepressed on the front side. In the mounting of the shoulder portion 70on the trunk portion 10, a spherical body 70A provided at a tip end ofthe shoulder 70 is internally included by the trunk body 10, therebyenabling a swinging operation of the shoulder portion 70 with respect tothe trunk portion 10.

The upper arm portion 40A is connected to the other end of the shoulderportion 70 opposite to the trunk body 10. A cylindrical body 41 ismounted on the other end of the shoulder portion 70 so as to berotatable about the axis and an U-shaped body 42 is formed on one end ofthe upper arm portion 40 so as to sandwich the lateral faces of thecylindrical body 41. Projections 43 are formed on the respective opposedlateral faces of the cylindrical body 41 and are inserted into holes 44formed in respective opposed pieces of the U-shaped body 42. Thus, theupper arm portion 40A is designed to be rotatable (in the arrowdirections in the Figures) about an axial direction with respect to theshoulder portion 70. It is to be noted that a state is illustrated inwhich the right side upper arm portion 40 and the left side upper armportion 30 in the Figures are rotated with an angle difference of 90°with respect to the shoulder portion 70.

In addition, a length adjustment portion 87 is formed in the upper armportion 40A and is constructed by inserting a rod body 40AP into a hole40AH, the rod body 40AP being provided in the end face of one upper armportion, the hole 40AH being formed in the end face of the other upperarm portion, the one and the other upper arm portions being divided atthe position of the length adjustment portion 87. The rod body 40AP isformed to be relatively long and the hole 40AH is formed to berelatively deep. Also, the rod body 40AP inserted into the hole 40AH isdesigned to be movable in an axial direction with slight friction withinserted in the hole 40AH. This enables adjustment of the length of theupper arm portion 40A.

The joint portion 76 between the upper arm portion 40A and the lower armportion 40B is constructed by connecting a plate body 78 to an U-shapedbody 77 via an axial body 79 that penetrates through the U-shaped body77 and the plate body 78, the plate body 78 being formed in the upperend of the lower arm portion 40B, the U-shaped body 77 being formed inthe lower end of the upper arm portion 40A.

The left side arm portion 30 and the right side arm portion 40configured in this manner are easy to be disposed close to and in frontof the trunk portion 10 because the shoulder portions 70 on which theleft and right side arm portions are mounted are formed to have a curvedportion that is depressed on the front side of the doll body 1. It is tobe noted that as long as the shape of each shoulder portion 70 has acurved portion that can surround lateral faces of the trunk portion 10when the shoulder portion 70 is rotated forward, the shape is notparticularly limited. For instance, the shape may be a curved shape suchas a bow shape or a bent shape such as a hiragana character “ku”. Byhaving such a shape, for instance, as illustrated in FIG. 7, the leftside arm portion 30 and the right side arm portion 40 can be disposed soas to be mutually crossed.

It is to be noted that as is apparent from FIGS. 6 (a), (b), the rodbody 10P, which supports the head portion 20 (see FIG. 2), is disposedin a depressed portion 10Q formed in the trunk portion 10 and isimplanted in the middle of the lateral face of a cylindrical body 11that has a supporting shaft 12 in the crosswise direction of the dollbody 1. Thus, the head portion 20 can be rotated about the supportingshaft 12 so as to be inclined in the forward and backward directions.

In the doll body 1 configured in this manner, for each limb of the leftside leg portion 50, the right side leg portion 60, the left side armportion 30, and the right side arm portion 40, the length of the limbcan be adjusted by one of the length adjustment portions 85, 86, 87,which is formed in the limb. Also, the space between the trunk portion10 and the head portion 20 can be adjusted by the space adjustmentportion 80 formed between the trunk portion 10 and the head portion 20.In addition, the space between the trunk portion body 10A and the hipportion 10B can be adjusted by the space adjustment portion 81 formedbetween the trunk portion body 10A and the hip portion 10B.

Consequently, in the doll body 1, the space between the trunk portion 10and the head portion 20, and the space between the trunk portion body10A and the hip portion 10B can be changed, thereby achieving the effectthat variations of the overall posture of the doll body 1 can beenjoyed.

Second Embodiment

FIG. 8 is a configuration view illustrating a second embodiment of thedoll body of the present invention.

In FIG. 8, the doll body 1 has the same configuration as the doll body 1illustrated in FIG. 1. In this case, it is assumed in the doll body 1that for each limb of the left side leg portion 50, the right side legportion 60, the left side arm portion 30, and the right side arm portion40, the length of the limb is set to, for instance, a maximum by one ofthe length adjustment portions 85, 86, 87, which is formed in the limb.It is assumed that the space between the trunk portion 10 and the headportion 20 is maximized by the space adjustment portion 80 formedbetween the trunk portion 10 and the head portion 20. Furthermore, it isassumed that for instance, the space between the trunk portion body 10Aand the hip portion 10B is maximized by the space adjustment portion 81formed between the trunk portion body 10A and the hip portion 10B.

In the head portion 20 of the doll body 1, an alternative head portion20′, which is prepared in advance, is designed to cover and to bemounted on the head portion 20. The alternative head portion 20′includes, for instance, two members A, B that are front and back dividedhalves. The alternative head portion 20′ is designed to be mounted onthe head portion 20 by covering the head portion 20 with the members A,B from the front and the back. It is to be noted that each of themembers A, B of the alternative head portion 20′ may be configured to befitted to the head portion 20 or the members A, B may be configured tobe engaged with each other. In this case, since the space between thetrunk portion 10 and the head portion 20 is maximized as describedabove, the alternative head portion 20′ covers and is mountable on thehead portion 20.

Similarly, in the trunk portion body 10A of the doll body 1, analternative trunk portion body 10A′, which is prepared in advance, isdesigned to cover and to be mountable on the trunk portion body 10A. Thealternative trunk portion body 10A′ includes for instance, two membersA, B in the front and two members C, D in the back. The alternativetrunk portion body 10A′ is designed to be mounted on the trunk portionbody 10A by covering the trunk portion body 10A with the members A, B,C, D from the front and the back. It is to be noted that each of themembers A, B, C, D of the alternative trunk portion body 10A′ may beconfigured to be fitted to the alternative trunk portion body 10A′ orthe members A, B, C, D may be configured to be engaged with each other.In this case, since the space between the trunk portion 10 and the headportion 20 or the space between the trunk portion body 10A and the hipportion 10B is maximized as described above, the alternative trunkportion body 10A′ covers and is mountable on the trunk portion body 10A.

Similarly, in the hip portion 10B of the doll body 1, an alternative hipportion 10B′, which is prepared in advance, is designed to cover and tobe mountable on the hip portion 10B of the doll body 1. The alternativehip portion 10B′ includes, for instance, two members A, B that are frontand back divided halves. The alternative hip portion 10B′ is designed tobe mounted on the hip portion 10B by covering the hip portion 10B withthe members A, B from the front and the back. Each of the members A, Bof the alternative hip portion 10B′ may be configured to be fitted tothe hip portion 10B or the members A, B may be configured to be engagedwith each other. In this case, since the space between the trunk portionbody 10A and the hip portion 10B is maximized as described above, thealternative hip portion 10B′ covers and is mountable on the hip portion10B.

Furthermore, for instance, in the right side leg portion 60, analternative leg portion 60′, which is prepared in advance, is designedto cover and to be mountable on the leg portion 60. The alternative leg60′ includes, for instance, a member A and two members B, C, the memberA being configured to cover the upper thigh portion 60A from the side,the members B, C being configured to cover the lower thigh portion 60Bfrom the front and the back. Each of the members A, B, C of thealternative leg portion 60′ may be configured to be fitted to the legportion 60 or the members A, B, C may be configured to be engaged witheach other. In this case, since the length of the leg portion 60 ismaximized as described above, the alternative leg portion 60′ can bemounted on the leg portion 60 according to the length of the leg portion60.

It is to be noted that although the alternative leg portion, thealternative arm portion of the left side leg portion 50, the left sidearm portion 30, and the right side arm portion 40 are not illustrated inFIG. 8, the above-described alternative leg portion and alternative armportion are assumed to be mounted similarly to the right side legportion 60.

For instance, as illustrated in FIG. 9, the doll body 1 configured inthis manner enables a doll body 2 to be formed, the doll body 2 having asecond posture completely different from the posture of the doll body 1illustrated in FIG. 1. FIG. 10 is a view illustrating the relationshipbetween the doll body 1 and the doll body 2, and is a view illustratingthe doll body 1 with transparent alternative members such as thealternative head portion, the alternative trunk portion and the like.
